I'm having trouble locating the heating element for this burner. It looks like measuring from the edge, not including the trim, it's about 7.5 inches.... The elements I see available for a similar model number(8791) look like they are 8 inches... is this possible, or did I just measure wrong and this is actually 8 inches including the trim?

I want to make sure I get the right thing since I will probably not be able to return it.

Big burner 8 inches, small burner 6 inches. What you want to do is match the number of turns the burner has. It is either gonna be a 4 turn 8 inch or a 5 turn 8 inch burner.Or a 3 turn 6 inch 4 turn 6 incher or even a 5 turn 6 inch burner. The delta burner is better than the y burner also.

This is a solid burner element, it's not a coil

I'm pretty positive about the model number, but I will recheck, it's my neighbors stove about 5 doors down.

This stove has 3 different size burners on it..... 2 small ones, one big one(with a sensor in the center of it), and one medium, which is the one that doesn't work. The stove also has the words "Limited Edition" on it....This must really be an oddball!
